X-AIR 14 / ECLIPSE 2 High-efficiency Pleion X-AIR 14 vacuum solar collector consisting of 14 double-walled borosilicate glass tubes, external diameter 58 [mm] inside which a vacuum is created.
Frame made of anodized aluminium profiles that give the structure strength. The solar radiation penetrates from the outside into the glass tubes and is captured by the absorber. An aluminium tube inside the glass transfers the heat to the "U" shaped copper circuit inserted in the same. A special Nickel treatment deposited on the copper circuit cancels any type of oxidation caused by high temperatures and guarantees long life. Internal insulation is rock wool. The special third tube integrated into the manifold allows the installation of up to 6 collectors in parallel with the parallel operation, with the exclusive and extraordinary advantage of not having to realize the external return line. This reduces the cost and time of installation with an even aesthetic advantage. Installation on any type of flat or inclined surface with dedicated fixtures. Possibility of providing a special system of blackout dishes to eliminate the stagnation and over-temperature of the panel. The dishes are controlled and managed by the special control unit.
